Quick answer
Separate an EA1000C6 quotation into indoor 500×1000 and outdoor 500×1000 cabinet lines, and add a distinct EA500C6 500×500 line wherever the C6 layout mixes sizes. Put curve hardware, rear access and corner protection on separate confirmation lines, and keep control, spares, packaging and freight outside the cabinet lines. Require exact model, pitch, quantity and protection rating on each line.

Why indoor, outdoor and mixed C6 cabinet lines must be separate
The EA1000C6 rental LED screen is described as a 500×1000 mm rental LED screen for event and AV businesses, with indoor or outdoor models offered. Those are different configurations, not one generic cabinet. An outdoor EA1000C6 model is the documented choice for outdoor events, and the specification table lists IP65 protection at the front and IP54 at the rear; indoor models are IP31. That difference alone means a quotation cannot blend indoor and outdoor cabinets into one unlabeled line. The buyer should also not assume that rear connection weather protection is identical to the front rating; the source says to confirm installation conditions and weather protection for rear connections with the project team.
The same separation applies to mixed C6 builds. The EA1000C6 source lists 500×500 and 500×1000 mixed splicing, and states that staggered C6 cabinet connections support asymmetrical LED walls. The EA500C6 source describes a 500×500 mm indoor and outdoor rental cabinet with dual quick locks, four corner protectors, optional concave and convex curves, and an openable rear cover. If the wall includes that 500×500 footprint, it needs its own cabinet line rather than being merged with the 500×1000 EA1000C6 quantity. Our buying advice is to keep cabinet size, model, pitch and quantity as one line each, so the mixed cabinet-size quote breakdown remains checkable against the layout.
What each indoor and outdoor EA1000C6 line should state
For an indoor EA1000C6 line, name the model as an indoor 500×1000 mm configuration and state the exact pixel pitch, cabinet quantity and the protection rating that applies to that model. The supplied source says all listed EA1000C6 models offer at least 3,840 Hz refresh, 14-bit grayscale and a 140° viewing angle, while brightness varies by model. Because brightness is model-dependent, a quotation that gives one brightness figure for the whole EA1000C6 range is not specific enough for acceptance. Ask for the pitch and brightness to be stated for the exact cabinets quoted.
For an outdoor EA1000C6 line, state the outdoor model and the IP65 front and IP54 rear ratings for the quoted cabinet, then confirm the rear weather protection and installation conditions. This is not a repetition of the indoor line with a different label; the source separates indoor and outdoor models at the selection stage. Keep the outdoor line’s cabinet quantity, pitch and configuration distinct, and ask for the outdoor-specific protection values to appear beside the quantity. When you compare LED screen quotes, the same fields should be visible on every supplier line, but the values should remain attached to the named cabinet and venue condition.
EA1000C6 quotation lines and what to request
| Quotation line | Evidence to request |
|---|---|
| Indoor EA1000C6 cabinet line | Request indoor 500×1000 mm model, exact pixel pitch, quantity and indoor IP31 protection; keep brightness attached to the quoted model because brightness varies by model. |
| Outdoor EA1000C6 cabinet line | Request outdoor model, quantity, pitch and IP65 front and IP54 rear ratings; confirm installation conditions and rear-connection weather protection. |
| Mixed C6 500×500 line | If the layout includes 500×500 cabinets, request a separate EA500C6 line with indoor or outdoor model, pitch, quantity and applicable 6.5 kg indoor or 7.3 kg outdoor cabinet weight. |
| Compatibility and layout line | Request a cabinet matrix showing which positions use 500×1000 EA1000C6 cabinets and which use 500×500 cabinets, plus confirmation of mixed splicing and staggered connections. |
| Curve hardware line | Request optional angle hardware or curve locks for the exact cabinet model and curved section; confirm it is included in the order. |
| Rear access and corner protection line | Request written confirmation that the openable rear cover and corner protectors apply to each cabinet size ordered, and state the service route once assembled. |
| Control, spares, packaging and freight | Request separate itemized lines for control equipment, spare parts, packaging and freight; for EA500C6 also name controller, rigging and flight cases. |
How a mixed C6 line changes the cabinet schedule
A mixed C6 quotation should not simply increase the EA1000C6 quantity. The 500×500 cabinet uses dual quick locks and positioning pins, while the EA1000C6 is a 500×1000 mm cabinet with quick locks on the top and left sides. The sources list mixed 500×500 and 500×1000 splicing and staggered C6 connections, so the layout can legitimately include both formats. Give the 500×500 EA500C6 line its own indoor or outdoor model, pitch, quantity and applicable weight: the documented indoor weight is 6.5 kg and the outdoor weight is 7.3 kg.
The mixed line also needs a compatibility statement. The source evidence states mixed 500×500 and 500×1000 splicing and staggered C6 cabinet connections, but it does not turn that into an automatic cabinet count for a curved or mixed-size wall. The EA1000C6 source says curved or mixed-size layouts need a separate cabinet plan. Ask for a cabinet matrix that shows which positions use the 500×1000 EA1000C6 and which use the 500×500 cabinet, plus the connection sequence and any separate curve hardware. Quote the mixed C6 splicing evidence against the exact layout, not against the whole product family.
Curve hardware, rear access and corner protection as separate confirmation lines
The EA1000C6 listing includes a corner protector design and an openable back cover for maintenance, and optional angle hardware supports concave and convex LED walls. The EA500C6 listing also includes four corner protectors, an openable rear cover and optional curve locks that let cabinets form inward or outward arcs. These are the kinds of items that should not be hidden inside a headline cabinet rate. Our recommendation is to place curve hardware on its own line for the exact cabinet model and to ask for written confirmation that corner protectors and rear access are included with each cabinet size being ordered. The source describes optional curved installation, so the buyer should not assume that an unspecified order includes the exact curve hardware needed for a curved section.
Rear access is a service condition as well as a cabinet feature. The EA1000C6 openable back cover gives technicians access to the power supply near the service door, and the EA500C6 rear cover opens for access to the power and control area. A quotation should state how service will be reached once the mixed wall is assembled, especially if the indoor and outdoor sections are installed in different orientations. If the wall includes a curve, ask whether the curve hardware changes the service or alignment procedure. Keep those answers beside the cabinet line they affect rather than in a general product note.
Control, spares, packaging and freight belong outside the cabinet lines
The EA1000C6 pricing source says the price depends on the chosen indoor or outdoor model, pixel pitch, screen size and system scope, and it asks for an itemized quote covering cabinets, control equipment, spares, packaging and freight. That is the right pattern for a mixed C6 quotation: cabinet lines first, then the surrounding scope. The EA500C6 source also ties purchase price to pixel pitch, indoor or outdoor model, cabinet quantity and system requirements, and asks for an itemized quote that identifies the controller, spare parts, rigging, flight cases and freight. A single installed price for a mixed indoor and outdoor wall makes it hard to see whether the quote covers both cabinet formats or only one.
Spares should follow the model and size they fit. For the EA500C6, the indoor specification table lists GOB on P1.56, P1.95 and P2.6, and the source says to confirm the exact model and matching spare modules in the order rather than assuming GOB is included on every pitch. Apply the same discipline to the EA1000C6: ask which spare modules, power supplies and control items are quoted for each cabinet line. If the fleet carries both 500×1000 and 500×500 cabinets, the spare package should name the format and pitch it supports. Packaging and freight should also be quoted for the actual mix of cabinet sizes rather than for one representative cabinet.
Common quotation mistakes and when to defer
The first mistake is blending indoor and outdoor EA1000C6 cabinets into one line. The source separates them at the selection stage and gives different protection ratings: outdoor IP65 front and IP54 rear, indoor IP31. A blended line leaves the buyer unable to tell whether the quote covers weather-protected outdoor cabinets, indoor cabinets, or both. Split the line before comparing prices.
The second mistake is treating optional curve hardware as included. The EA1000C6 source describes optional angle hardware, and the EA500C6 source describes optional curve locks. Because those items are optional, the quotation should state whether they are included for the exact cabinet model and curved section. The third mistake is accepting a mixed C6 cabinet count without a layout matrix. Mixed splicing and staggered C6 connections are documented, but curved or mixed-size layouts need a separate cabinet plan. Defer acceptance until the matrix, connection sequence and curve-hardware scope are written.
Mixed C6 quotation scenarios and what to confirm
| Scenario | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Flat indoor EA1000C6-only wall | One indoor 500×1000 cabinet line; confirm indoor IP31 and exact model, pitch and quantity. |
| Flat outdoor EA1000C6-only wall | One outdoor 500×1000 cabinet line; confirm IP65 front and IP54 rear and rear-connection weather protection. |
| Mixed 500×1000 and 500×500 C6 wall | Separate EA500C6 500×500 line; confirm mixed splicing, staggered connection and cabinet matrix for the layout. |
| Wall with a curved section | Curve hardware on its own line for the exact model; confirm optional angle hardware or curve locks and the service route. |
| Fleet used for indoor and outdoor events | Separate indoor and outdoor cabinet lines even in one order; do not share protection assumptions between them. |
Buyer checklist
- Name indoor or outdoor model, 500×1000 mm cabinet size, pitch and quantity on each EA1000C6 line.
- Add a separate 500×500 EA500C6 line for any mixed C6 layout, with its own model, pitch, quantity and applicable weight.
- State the protection rating on each line: EA1000C6 outdoor IP65 front and IP54 rear, indoor IP31; EA500C6 indoor IP31 and outdoor up to IP65 front.
- Place optional curve hardware on its own line for the exact cabinet model and curved section.
- Request written confirmation that corner protectors and the openable rear cover are included with each cabinet size ordered.
- Quote control equipment, spare parts, packaging and freight separately from the cabinet lines.
Frequently asked questions
Should an EA1000C6 quotation list indoor and outdoor cabinets on one line?
No. The EA1000C6 source treats indoor and outdoor models as separate choices, with outdoor models listed at IP65 front and IP54 rear and indoor models at IP31. Keep the indoor and outdoor 500×1000 cabinet lines separate, each with its own exact model, pitch, quantity and protection rating, and confirm rear-connection weather protection for the outdoor line.
How should mixed C6 500×500 cabinets appear on an EA1000C6 quote?
Give the 500×500 format its own EA500C6 line with indoor or outdoor model, pitch, quantity and applicable weight. The sources list mixed 500×500 and 500×1000 splicing and staggered C6 connections, but the cabinet count for a mixed or curved wall still needs a separate cabinet plan. Ask for a layout matrix that shows where each format is used.
Are curve hardware, corner protectors and rear access included in the EA1000C6 cabinet price?
The EA1000C6 source lists corner protector design, an openable back cover and optional angle hardware for concave and convex walls. Optional means inclusion is conditional, so ask for written confirmation that the exact curve hardware, corner protectors and rear access apply to each cabinet size ordered. Do not assume an unspecified order includes the curve hardware needed for a curved section.
What cabinet count basis should a mixed C6 quote show?
Ask for a separate cabinet matrix rather than one combined count. The EA1000C6 source says curved or mixed-size layouts need a separate cabinet plan, and the sources state that 500×500 and 500×1000 formats can be mixed and that C6 supports staggered connections. The matrix should name how many of each cabinet size are used and where they sit.
What should be quoted separately from the EA1000C6 cabinet lines?
The EA1000C6 source asks for an itemized quote covering cabinets, control equipment, spares, packaging and freight. The EA500C6 source asks for an itemized quote identifying controller, spare parts, rigging, flight cases and freight. Keep those surrounding items outside the cabinet lines so the buyer can see whether both indoor, outdoor and mixed cabinet formats are covered.
